A holiday to celebrate nothing but LOVE :)

Hello everyone! It's a blustery, beautiful day in dear old Kansas :)It has been an AMAZING week!First of all, on Tuesday, we got seven referrals from headquarter,made five of them new investigators, and all five of them are on dateto be baptized.Second of all, there is this man named Dustin who is just thegreatest. He can barely get around, because he is in a wheelchair andhas terrible health problems, but when we met him he said the onlyreason he hadn't gotten baptized before is because his ride movedaway. So Sunday he was planning on coming to church as long as he feltup to it. THEN his mom went into the ER Saturday night and he only gotthree hours of sleep. HE STILL CAME. and shared his testimony. And isgetting baptized on the twentieth. Pooooower.THEN on Sunday I walked into the foyer and was shocked and ecstatic tosee a girl we had met at the library two weeks before who we hadn'tseen since because she'd moved to another city. Well, now she's backand she brought her fiancée and they're getting baptized on the fifth!Their names are Anastasia and Adam. During the sacrament she keptopening to the verse we had left her two weeks ago and sharing it withher fiancée. Perfection.Anyway, so those are a couple of highlights. Life is so happy. Andtomorrow we have interviews with President Bell!! How exciting!Goodness do I love the Bells. And then on Friday David F. Evans, whowas the executive missionary director guy not too long ago is comingand speaking to us. Happy Valentine's Day to us :) speaking of which,I love a holiday to celebrate nothing but looooove! My favorite thing.I have never felt it more for others, or from Christ for me in mylife. And that is the root of joy, I believe. I heard once that thelove of Christ means love like and love for Christ. Good stuff.And on that note, I sure do love you all!Sister Siera GomezUs with the stls and our zone leader Whitaker friend. You're probably pretty accustomed to his face by now since I've served with him for like .... Seven and a half months

This is a sign at our church with a pretty morbid edit that I had to share.
